A range of pre-existing policy settings in Ecuador support the Inclusive Education and Sustainable Learning project delivered by academics from The University of Melbourne, The University of New England and Southern Cross University, in partnership with the Australia-Latin America Training Academy (ALATA). Although inclusion in regular schools for students with a disability in Ecuador is supported in legislation and policy, schools and teachers face significant challenges. These are due to a range of factors including geographical and economic variation across regions of the country, differences in the availability of appropriate resourcing and expertise and the need for system-level approaches to leadership development and school improvement. The Inclusive Education and Sustainable Learning project was conceptualised by the Ecuadorean Ministry of Education. In its entirety, the project will extend for four years from 2018 to 2021, with an impact evaluation at the end of 2019 and continued investigation of outcomes to follow. It uses a ‘train the trainer’ model to provide professional learning to 250 teacher/mentors each year that focuses on equity (learning for all), relevance (teaching that matters) and sustainability (learning that lasts). These teacher/mentors, in turn, support around 25 teachers each in their geographic areas for a total of 5,500 teachers. The project began in the Coast region based around Guayaquil during 2018 and has extended to the Highlands region in 2019. This presentation relates to the conference theme of whole school and inclusive approaches to inclusivity. It will draw from the content and pedagogy of the workshops delivered in Ecuador to illustrate an approach to inclusive classroom practice that has a focus on learning, not labels; works towards the provision of timely, appropriate support for learning that can reduce the impact of a disability; encourages the use of evidence-based instructional approaches; and supports collaboration and communication as key for students, teachers and families working towards creating more inclusive educational settings.

Learning for all is inclusive and responsive to the learning needs of all students in the community
Learning that lasts focuses on processes of learning or capabilities that support sustained learning throughout life
Teaching that matters is responsive teaching, taking into account the ecology of learning as well as the capabilities that need to be developed

The aims of this evaluation are to:• Understand the potential outcomes of the IEAS for 2018participants
• Identify any changes in inclusion practices, specifically, whatprocesses within the IEAS contribute to these changes
• Identify what conditions are required for success that might beattributable to the IEAS, including contextual factors, schoolenvironment, leadership support and so forth
• Understand how the IEAS and the principles underpinninginclusive education and sustainable learning can contribute toprogress towards relevant UN Sustainable Development Goals.
